Product details
Overview
1PS79SB31-Q from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier diode in SOD523 (SC-79) package, rated for 30 V reverse voltage, 200 mA forward current, and 255–300 mV forward voltage at 10 mA/25 °C. It serves as a low-loss rectifier or clamping device in space-constrained automotive and portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the 1PS79SB31-Q datasheet, 1PS79SB31-Q pinout, 1PS79SB31-Q application, or 1PS79SB31-Q equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low VF at low currents, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOD523 footprint compatibility, and thermal resistance of 450 K/W on FR4 PCB.
Technical Context
This discrete Schottky diode uses a guard ring structure to enhance reverse breakdown robustness and reduce leakage. Its planar junction design enables stable low-VF performance across temperature (130–500 mV from 0.1 mA to 200 mA at 25 °C).
Qualified per AEC-Q101, it supports automotive ambient ranges (−65 °C to +125 °C) and withstands 1 A non-repetitive peak forward surge (8.3 ms half-sine). Diode capacitance is 20–25 pF at 1 V/1 MHz, supporting high-speed switching up to ~100 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 30 V - Maximum DC blocking capability without breakdown |
| Forward Current (IF) | 200 mA - Continuous DC conduction limit at Tamb ≤ 125 °C |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 255–300 mV @ 10 mA/25 °C - Enables <0.3 V drop in low-power biasing and clamping |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤30 µA @ 10 V/25 °C - Low leakage preserves battery life in always-on circuits |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 20–25 pF @ 1 V/1 MHz - Supports fast edge response in ESD protection and RF detection |
| Junction Temp (Tj) | 125 °C max - Defines maximum operating junction temperature under derated conditions |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 450 K/W - On standard FR4 PCB; dictates power dissipation limit (~111 mW at ΔT = 50 K) |
Pinout & Package
SOD523 (SC-79) ultra-small surface-mount plastic package: 1.2 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.6 mm body, flat lead, single-sided copper PCB mount.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Negative terminal; marked by cathode bar; connects to lower-potential node in rectification/clamping |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Positive terminal; accepts input current; polarity-sensitive placement required for correct bias |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | USB-C Port Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Reverse polarity and ESD transient suppression on 12 V LIN bus lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete Schottky clamp placed between line and ground to shunt transients below 30 V. Use Value: 30 µA IR at 10 V ensures minimal standby drain; 25 pF Cd avoids signal integrity degradation on 20 kbps LIN. | Use Scenario: VBUS overvoltage clamping and CC line ESD protection in compact USB-C receptacles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional low-capacitance clamp integrated adjacent to Type-C connector pins. Use Value: 20–25 pF capacitance prevents USB 2.0 data eye distortion; SOD523 fits within 1.5 mm board edge keep-out. |
| Wireless Earbud Battery Management | Industrial Sensor Node Power Rail |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSR0230HT1G | Same SOD-523 package; VF = 270–320 mV @ 10 mA; IR = 50 µA @ 10 V | Higher IR increases standby loss in battery-critical designs | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs leakage requirements |
| Vishay VSKY130L | SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.25 mm); VF = 290–340 mV @ 10 mA; VR = 30 V | Larger footprint limits use in ultra-dense layouts like TWS earbuds | Select only if existing SOD-323 land pattern must be reused |
Compared with NSR0230HT1G and VSKY130L, the 1PS79SB31-Q delivers the lowest combined VF/IR trade-off in SOD523, making it optimal for space- and leakage-constrained automotive and portable applications where footprint and efficiency are co-prioritized.

FAQ
Is the 1PS79SB31-Q suitable for bidirectional ESD protection?
No - it is a unidirectional Schottky diode optimized for forward conduction and reverse blocking. For bidirectional ESD clamping, a dedicated TVS diode such as PESD5V0S1BA should be used. The 1PS79SB31-Q provides effective unidirectional clamping only when anode is biased positive relative to cathode.
What is the meaning of the 'G3' marking on the device?
The 'G3' marking is the manufacturer-specific top-side code for the 1PS79SB31-Q, per Table 4 of the datasheet. It identifies the device variant and batch; it does not encode date code or package version. The cathode is indicated by the bar adjacent to pin 1.
Can this diode replace a standard silicon diode in a 5 V rail clamp?
Yes - its 30 V VR rating and 255–300 mV VF at 10 mA make it superior to standard silicon diodes (VF ≈ 600–700 mV) in 5 V clamping, reducing power loss by >50% and improving thermal margin. Ensure layout respects SOD523 thermal pad limitations and avoids excessive trace inductance.
Does the 450 K/W Rth(j-a) apply to reflow-soldered assemblies?
Yes - the 450 K/W value is measured on a standard FR4 PCB with single-sided 1 oz copper and the recommended SC-79 solder footprint (Fig. 5), using JEDEC JESD51-2 compliant test conditions. Performance degrades to ~600 K/W on 0.5 oz copper or no thermal relief, requiring derating.
